This unique home nestled in the Swansea Valley is the ideal place to begin your adventures in south Wales. With easy access to both the Brecon Beacons National Park and the coast, you'll love spending your downtime in these wonderfully peaceful surroundings. 

It was used as a cart house when first built, but has since been totally revamped by award-winning Rio Architects. The result is a splendid home that combines contemporary minimalism with some traditional touches – the hosts have even added some Welsh-themed artworks for you to admire. And, if you head outside, you'll find a patio area where you can sip drinks in the sunshine – look out for the magic stone tree built on one of the walls.

The popular Plas Farm Trail passes right by the cottage's front door, and a short road leads you down to the banks of the River Clydach then into a private bluebell wood. A twenty-minute car ride will bring you to the Brecon Beacons, where you can try your hand at a range of outdoor activities including rock climbing and kayaking. And, if you fancy a day at the seaside, you can drive to the Gower Peninsula in forty minutes to discover hidden beaches.

Make yourself a cup of tea and take it outside to your private riverside terrace, where the sound of the water cascading along the rocky riverbed and the many birds that visit it is all you need to feel content. Part of a small complex of cottages, around a central courtyard, it's set in an estate boasting more than a hundred acres of land – including hillside meadows, woodland and streams. 

The building you'll be calling home was once part of the home farm for the impressive Plas Cilybebyll Estate and was most likely stables and grooms' quarters – although some of its stone features hark back to the estate's noble history. Dive into its fascinating past and you'll spot links to the descendants of the ancient Welsh kings, the Norman invasion, Iolo Morgannwg and more. You'll even find an arrow slit in the lounge and another in the ground floor wet room wall.

Cleverly converted and architect designed, this home uses green energy and is insulated with sheep's wool. It's a surprisingly modern and comfortable home for a small family or a couple of friends here to make the most of its idyllic rural setting. By day, explore the farm thanks to a trail that starts at your door, visiting cattle and spotting wildlife as you go. If you're a keen cyclist, you're within striking distance of the Afan Forest and Bike Park Wales, with safe storage for your equipment.

Just an eight-minute drive from the town of Pontardawe and less than half an hour from Swansea, you'll feel as though this fairytale setting is tucked well away from the rest of the world.

A cabin in the woods reimagined, this home belongs in the centrefold of a magazine. Traditional wooden panelling adds a rustic feel to this home, but it's nicely contrasted with a stylish monochrome palette and huge floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook a colourful sensory garden and pond. It's easy to spend an afternoon sitting on the south-facing deck, enjoying the peace of the Welsh countryside and keeping an eye out for the swallows, swifts, ducks and frogs living their lives on the water — even an otter has been spotted in the grounds by previous guests. After a stroll among the greenery, unwind with a glass of wine in front of the log burner or head up to the snug in the mezzanine with a well-thumbed book. Venturing out, two sandy beaches, Norman castles and a few quaint cafes await in the village of Llansteffan, which can be reached in eight minutes by car. Also close by is Green Castle Woods – about a five-minute drive – which is perfect for afternoon strolls through ancient woodlands. Or, ten minutes in the opposite direction lies Carmarthen, believed to be the oldest town in Wales – head there for places to eat, drink and shop aplenty.

Occupying an enviable spot, just a two-minute walk from South Beach and five minutes from the bustling High Street, this modern apartment has the very best of Tenby within easy reach. Inside the home, it’s modern and fresh with bifold doors in the living space that flood the place with light and a fully-equipped kitchen that makes rustling up your favourite dinners a cinch.

Start your mornings with a coffee on the terrace before throwing on your sun hat and taking the ten-minute stroll to the popular Castle Beach for a paddle in the shallows. If hunger strikes, there are a number of cosy cafes and gourmet seafood restaurants scattered across town. After a good feasting, enjoy a ramble along the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, just five minutes from your doorstep, or for something a little different, take the twenty-minute boat trip over to the holy Caldey Island.

With features dating back to the sixteenth century, a stay at this former farmhouse epitomises a Devon country retreat. Within the grounds, you’ve got a shared indoor swimming pool, games room and playparks aplenty for the kids. Feeding sessions at the animal enclosures take place in the morning where you can get close to the alpacas, piglets and pygmy goats. And there’s an honesty shop onsite too, selling delights like eggs straight from the farm, home-cooked ready meals and barbecue meat packs. If you want to explore the wider area, Combe Martin is a five-minute drive away with a couple of local pubs and a supermarket, and Combe Martin’s beach is just a ten-minute drive.

The home itself dated back to the sixteenth century and you can feel this history in the old beams, minstrel’s gallery above the living room and listed staircase inside. Decor touches like an old spinning wheel, suspended aviary and antique writer’s bureau bring that old-world feel back into the bones of the home and the living room is set around a traditional old stove set in stonework. The huge kitchen is designed farmhouse-style with a big range cooker and island in the centre surrounded by high chairs. The master bedroom features a carved four-posted bed and each bedroom is decorated with antique darkwoork furniture and Victoriana accents. 

Outside a delightful surprise awaits. A bubbling hot tub overlooks the gardens and out to the rolling hills beyond. There’s also dining for the group on the patio, courtesy of a barbecue and perhaps a hamper of locally-sourced meat from the honesty shop onsite.

If you're seeking a tranquil and indulgent stay by the sea, look no further than this splendid home on the Pembrokeshire Coast. Perched above the dunes overlooking Newport Bay, this home boasts a secluded location with breathtaking views to boot. Here, you're a seven-minute stroll from the dog-friendly beach of Newport Sands, while the eighteen-hole Newport Links Golf Course is practically on your doorstep – three minutes away on foot, to be exact.

With its generous living spaces and chic design aesthetic, this home beckons you to relax in the splendour of your surroundings. We love the majestic wood-burning stove, roosted in the glass-walled sitting room. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms are dressed to the nines with Egyptian cotton linen and locally sourced Melin Tregwyn wool, while offering scenic snapshots of the coast. After a restful night's slumber, we can't think of a better way to start the day than with a generous helping of crisp, seaside air. Spend mornings roosted on the balcony, cradling a cup of coffee and admiring panoramic views of the bay, before slipping out for a bracing walk on the beach.

After a busy day exploring the coast, gather around the large dining table for a delicious feast, prepared in the fully-equipped kitchen or, if you wish, by a private chef. In the summertime, enjoy barbecued cookouts on the outdoor dining deck and huddle around the fire pit to roast marshmallows at sunset.

If you’re looking for a peaceful escape to the Brecon Beacons with a few luxuries thrown in, this is the cottage for you. Set within 12 acres of estate grounds, there are plenty of walks for dogs and humans alike. If you’re seriously into your hiking, then the trails right from the cottage’s front door into the peaks of the Brecon Beacons (including Pen Y Fan) won’t disappoint. For the more sedate option, follow the flat canal path into the charming town of Brecon for cafés and shops. On returning, treat yourself to a complimentary massage at The Treatment Studio in the estate. The cottage itself radiates history from its old stone walls and low, timber-beamed ceilings. A little library of books and wood-burner in the living room adds to that away-from-it-all feeling. In the kitchen and living room, the flagstone floor is heated underfoot so there’s no sacrificing comfort for aesthetics here. Upstairs, the master bedroom comes with a glorious sleigh bed to send you off to sleep.

Just outside the picturesque village of Llanfrynach, on the grounds of a grade II*-listed Georgian mansion, this one-bedroom cottage is all about rest and relaxation. This former coach house has been converted into a stunning contemporary space. Downstairs, the sitting room boasts sky-high ceilings and ten-foot-tall French doors leading out onto a private patio. The wood burner and deerskin rugs on the floor add a cosy feeling that's perfect for the colder months, while during the summer, you can throw open those doors and let the outside in. The cottage actually has two patio areas – one facing east and the other west – so you can always catch the sun no matter the time of day. Upstairs, the bedroom welcomes you with exposed oak beams and a natural stone wall that perfectly complements the black wrought iron bed frame. Step across the hall to discover a beautiful bathroom with a double-ended tub and a walk-in shower. If you can tear yourself away, there are plenty of leisurely walks and challenging hikes directly from your front door. There are options for all levels, from high peaks to gentle canalside strolls and everything in between. Despite the secluded location, plenty of pubs and restaurants, as well as a supermarket, within a ten-minute drive. After a hard day of hiking in the hills, why not treat yourself to a relaxing massage in the on-site treatment room.

Perched on the edge of the river Clydach and surrounded by trees, this little cottage makes the perfect setting to experience the idyllic beauty of South Wales.

And stepping inside, you’ll find a home that celebrates its origins whilst bringing ease and comfort to your stay. From the traditional Welsh craftsmanship to the local art and personal touches, every detail inspires a wonderful sense of welcome. So whether you’re listening to the sound of the water on the patio, enjoying a meal under the trees or relaxing with a long soak in the bath, you’ll find this home provides a constant sense of serenity.  

Days can be spent admiring the local wildlife, observing ancient plant fossils and hiking across this majestic landscape – there’s a farm trail leading directly from the house. You’ll also find the nearest supermarket, pubs and cafes are just minutes away.

Serene views, sleek interiors and seemingly impossible design elements come together to make an architectural feat of a home on Devon's coastline. The hosts built this home from the ground up – pulling up outside you'll immediately get the sense you're about to stay somewhere unique. And you'll get the personal touch too, as host Deborah and her family love to greet every guest on arrival. Style-wise, this home is equal parts classy and edgy; velvet upholstery and faux-fur throws contrast with neon signs and curious light fixtures in the bedrooms. The pièce de résistance is the gravity-defying fireplace in the living area, nothing short of a showstopper. You'll want to explore every room in depth to make sure you haven't missed anything. This is a level of design you might not necessarily expect from a sleepy part of coastal Devon – but that's part of the home's beauty. It's the perfect retreat for those seeking total tranquility in exceptional surroundings. 

The Early Risers

Child Friendly

Tucked away in a secluded valley, this cottage offers an escape from it all. Sure, its traditional style may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but it’s well-equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. With four-legged friends welcome, this is a holiday your dogs will want to join you on with walks aplenty right from the door – and if you fancy picking up the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path, it’s a ten-minute stroll away. Nearby Newport beach is perfect for a coastal day before returning home to enjoy the sunset and sea views from the terrace.

Nestled in the Pembrokeshire countryside, this sweet home will transport your away from everyday life. Surrounded by rolling pastures and organic farmland, it's a truly tranquil place to press pause and relax. 

The rustic wooden exterior gives way to a cosy living space that will instantly make you feel at home On chilly days, you can curl up next to the fireplace with a good movie, or an excellent book for a great night in. The kitchen is perfect for cooking up a delicious meal, made with fresh, local ingredients. And, if the weather allows, you can listen to birdsong as you eat outside in the glorious private garden. 

The coast is only ten minutes away – the dunes at Poppit Sands are a great place to paddle and picnic. Walkers can join the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path, for a hike with stunning sea views. And, the charming market town of Cardigan is only twelve minutes away by car, where you can visit independent boutiques and dine on local seafood. 

Cabin Culture

Swap the big smoke for the great outdoors at this converted barn, tucked away at the foot of Angel Mountain, close to the Pembrokeshire coast. 

Nestled amidst the patchwork hills of the Welsh countryside, you could feel a million miles from civilisation here –⁠ which is just how we like things. But when it’s time for a change of pace, the charming seaside town of Newport (six-minute drive) is an afternoon well spent – as is the mighty Pembrokeshire Coast National Park with its vast sandy beaches and secluded coves (eleven-minute drive).
 
Back at this quirky bolthole retreat, exposed stonework shows the bones of this barn's past, while vintage furniture and objects de art add layers of interest and heaps of style. A home for all seasons, on long summer nights, slide the bifold doors right back and stoke up the barbecue – the firepit will help keep the night flowing as a carpet of stars appear overhead. In winter months, hunker down inside and soak up the countryside vistas through the floor-to-ceiling picture windows - that snuggle seat by the wood-burning stove has got your name on it.

Pembrokeshire National Park is right on your doorstep, where you can hike, cycle, or even pony trek through the stunning landscapes. The pretty market town of Narberth is a five-minute drive away, and Telpyn Beach is just over ten minutes away by car.

Perched on the banks of the Teifi estuary, this renovated former sea captain's villa in southwest Wales treats guests to some spectacular waterside views. On sunny days, these can be enjoyed on the large terrace, whether that's reclining in one of the loungers, lying in the hammock or sitting around the alfresco dining area, waiting for dinner to be served off the barbecue or out of the pizza oven. However, the sparkly panorama can just as easily be appreciated from the huge windows in the open-concept kitchen-dining area or from the bedrooms. When you can prise your eyes away from the beautiful scene outside, you'll find a modern interior that integrates rustic aspects, such as exposed brickwork and a wood-burning fireplace, seamlessly. It's the sort of place you'll look forward to returning on the return leg of a long walk. If you're in need of inspiration, all you have to do is follow the Teifi — half an hour's walk west will get you to Poppit Sands Beach, while the same amount of time in the opposite direction will take you to the town of Cardigan.

Although this Pembrokeshire apartment underwent a recent renovation, one thing that hasn't changed is just how peaceful the view from the balcony is, with the unmistakably blue waters of Carmarthen Bay peering through the trees. It may not be the biggest outdoor space in the world, but this seaward orientation makes up for it.

Inside, the glass doors in the main living area are especially generous when it comes to natural light and this dances pleasingly off the wooden floors and white walls. When it comes to the design, it's a pretty simple affair with only a few pieces of coastal artwork nodding to the location, but it's all been executed pretty well, particularly the sleek kitchen and bathroom.

When it comes to seeing a little more of the local area, the centre of Saundersfoot and its beach is all of five mintues' walk from the front door. The town of Tenby is also only ten minutes' drive down the coastline and offers visitors a castle and a selection of galleries to visit.

Plus ça Change

Tucked away in the pretty village of Ludchurch and surrounded by glorious Pembrokeshire countryside, this home is a haven of tranquillity. As a former barn, this home retains much of its rustic charm with exposed beams and high vaulted ceilings, but don’t worry, there are no creaky areas or draughty spaces here. The rooms have all the modern comforts you could ask for – a cosy log burner, soft furnishings, WiFi and underfloor heating throughout. The open-plan living area is wonderfully spacious, uncluttered and awash with natural light. If the weather is good you’ll want to push open the patio doors and breathe in the countryside views. The garden has a serene summerhouse, but the best place to absorb the peaceful surroundings is from the heated hot tub. Drift away in the warm bubbles while contemplating the scenery of the rolling countryside. It’s a scenic 40-minute walk into the village of Wiseman’s Bridge, or fetch your towel, bathing suit and other paraphernalia to make the ten-minute drive down to the glorious Pembrokeshire coastline and its award-winning beaches.

The brainchild of a celebrated interior designer, this North Devon townhouse has got it all figured out. Located a couple of minutes’ drive from Croyde beach, where you’ll spend long days surfing and soaking up the salty sea breeze, the inside of the home is beautifully sophisticated, with subtle nautical nods—we loved the knot wallpaper and delicate fish shoal light shade. The bunks in the children’s room will be a hit with mini swashbucklers, while the pizza oven on the patio should keep big kids quiet for a while. You’ll find the pretty village of Croyde a five-minute amble down the road, offering a charming selection of tea rooms, ice cream parlours and thatched pubs. After a hearty roast dinner, retreat home to the outdoor hot tub before turning in for the night in those luxurious king-size beds.

Only minutes away from the Royal North Devon Golf Club, this home – coincidentally built by the same designer in 1865 – is the perfect option for large groups looking to explore the Devon coastline. 

And as much as this is a haven for golfing enthusiasts, it’s also the ideal location for beach lovers who get to spend sun-drenched days on Westward Ho! Beach. You can see those very shores from the perched hot tub in the backyard. Ease yourself into the warm water with a glass of wine and enjoy the views as you relax after a day of activity. 

Inside, find plush furnishings in muted greys, greens, and blues that come alive in the natural light of the large windows. There’s an understated elegance that works beautifully alongside the modern and homely elements of this home. You can probably see yourself at the kitchen counter, enjoying a cup of coffee as you wait for the rest of the group to join you at the dining table for breakfast. 

We recommend at least one long, luxurious bubble bath in the clawfoot bath, and why not savour a glass of Prosecco as you take in the views from the small window right next to the tub?

We dare you to find a home with a more spectacular view of Carmarthenshire's coastline than this. Perched on a hill overlooking Pendine's seven miles of golden sands below, the panoramic sea views reach far and wide, from the Carmarthen Bay to the Gower peninsula.

Every inch of this palatial, luminous home is designed with those vistas in mind. Curl up in the sumptuous king-size bed of the main suite with a cuppa and lose yourself to the horizon. Pad out across the porcelain tiled veranda and slip into the hot tub. Bring your ensemble together on the top floor for lazy breakfasts in the vast living area, awash in deep blues and restful greys. Or come together for sunset cocktails and barbecues on the expansive terrace – the outdoor mood lighting will help set the ambience. Wherever you choose to be, those magnificent seascapes will be right there.

If you can bear to part your gaze, if just for a while,  the silky sands and charming promenade of Pendine are just a nine-minute drive away. A traditional, understated seaside resort – it's all chalets, fish'n'chips, and windbreaks – just as it should be. But be sure to make it home for dusk - the sunset views from the hot tub are out-of-this-world.

Once Upon a Tide

Gather up all your favourite people for a seaside holiday at this stylish cottage, set right in the heart of Saundersfoot village and just a seven-minute walk from the beach. 

This is a home to enjoy whatever the British weather throws at you. In the winter months, luxuriate in the vast sunroom beneath a gabled roof and soak up the panoramic views reaching the sea. Come summertime, slide open the bi-fold doors and let the light lure you out onto the deck. Split your time between the hot tub and loungers as the kids run off some energy on the lawns.

When you work up an appetite, prepare a feast in the modern kitchen, fire up the gas barbecue, or take a seven-minute stroll down to the waterfront for some fresh seafood. With its shimmering Blue Flag beach and quaint harbour delivering oodles of seaside charm, it’s guaranteed to be an afternoon well-spent. 

For a change of scene, Tenby is just a nine-minute drive away, or hop on a boat trip to explore the wild Pembrokeshire coastline. For those who feel up to a hefty walk, the 186-mile Pembrokeshire Coast Path is right on your doorstep. 

Lazy Hazy Days

Lift Access

This cottage was once the laundry in a manor house built in the fifteenth century and the original castellated archway remains. This is where the large glass doors lead through to the interior, which has been given a contemporary makeover in recent years. Oodles of natural daylight and the bright yellow walls give the space a sunny disposition, while a standalone log-burner will keep you toasty during the colder months. The sleek white kitchen is plenty large enough to make a mess in, while the honey-coloured bathroom looks like it could belong in a spa. Speaking of which, there's a treatment room on the premises where guests can book massages, manicures and pedicures. Beyond the twelve acres of private parkland that surrounds the property, there are plenty of walking routes in the surrounding Brecon Beacons National Park and the quaint town of Brecon is only ten minutes away in the car.

Squeaky Clean

Revel in the relaxing sound of birdsong from the first-floor balcony of this eye-catching countryside lodge situated on the outskirts of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. Surrounded by beautiful landscaped gardens, wildflower meadows and a tranquil lake, this property offers a fantastic opportunity to get back to nature.

Every aspect of the interior has been carefully considered in order to make the most of the compact space. Your hosts have blended modern comforts with handmade elements and elegant organic shapes to create a getaway that's as pleasing to the eye as it is for the soul. 

On the ground floor, stunning slate floors are pleasing underfoot and extend all the way outside, while gorgeous wooden cabinets in the kitchenette provide sleek storage solutions. Climb the hand-built staircase to the bedroom and you'll be rewarded with breathtaking countryside vistas from the comfort of the king-size bed and the spectacular balcony. There's a comfortable outdoor sofa, plus a table and chairs for sitting back with a glass of something cold as the sun sets below the horizon.

If can tear yourself away, enjoy easy access to the unspoiled beaches of the Pembrokeshire coast. Dale, Marloes and Newgale beaches are all within easy reach by car. If you'd rather actively explore, we highly recommend walking a section of the jaw-dropping Pembrokeshire Coastal Path, or heading into the mysterious Preseli Mountains dotted with prehistoric monuments. Finally, reward yourself with a soak in the full-size hot tub tucked away on the private veranda.

Peregrine Lodge

Nestled between Brecon Beacons National Park and the Gower Peninsula, this little cottage sits like a gateway to the abundant beauty of Wales. And with over 100 acres of private grounds to explore, this is the perfect setting for an immersive retreat in the heart of nature. 

Formerly the estate carpenter’s workshop, the owners have sensitively designed this space to honour its original charm whilst creating an idyllic sanctuary. From the rustic simplicity of the styling to the local art and personal touches, every detail feels considered and intentional. So whether you’re enjoying a quiet morning watching the wildlife from the window, savouring a long lunch under the trees or cuddling on the sofa by the fire, it’s easy to settle in and make this space your own. 

Sitting alongside a mountain stream on the slopes of Mynydd Marchywel, this is the kind of setting that will leave you feeling refreshed and inspired by the beauty of nature. Follow the views from the cottage doorstep and you’ll discover wonderful woodland walks. It’s just a fifteen-minute stroll to the village pub, while the nearest supermarket is just over a mile away in the town of Pontardawe.

Dream of Nature

Courtyard

If you dream of waking up to uninterrupted views of the sea every day, then this home in the coastal village of Saundersfoot is for you. Three of the bedrooms offer fabulous vistas of the water below, meaning you can wake up to the sound of the waves and the sun on your face. The living room has huge floor-to-ceiling windows framing the watery views and, with two terraces to choose from, you can watch the fishing boats bobbing in the harbour for hours. The cheerful dining room is ideal for hosting a family dinner, or you might rather grill up an alfresco feast on the barbecue to enjoy outside with the breeze in your hair. The golden sands of Saundersfoot Beach are less than a ten-minute walk away, and the charming harbour is even closer. And, with all of Pembrokeshire Coast National Park on your doorstep, you'll love exploring the dramatic landscapes on foot or by bike. 

Seagull's Nest

Set on the outskirts of the pretty village of Llanfrynach, on the grounds of a grade II*-listed Georgian mansion, this quaint cottage offers a welcome break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The home has been lovingly converted from a workers' house into a contemporary home by your hosts, with meticulous attention paid to every detail. Step inside and head through to the open-plan living room, complete with an atmospheric wood burner and a dining table with plenty of space. The kitchen is equipped with everything you might need to prepare picnic lunches to keep you fuelled up on hikes, plus more elaborate dinners at the end of a long day out in nature. There are plenty of trails leading straight from the front door up onto the high peaks of the Brecon Beacons. Alternatively, enjoy more leisurely strolls along the canal. Despite the easy access to the pristine landscapes, you'll find plenty of pubs and restaurants, as well as a supermarket, within a ten-minute drive. Finally, there's an on-site treatment room where you can indulge in various therapy treatments ranging from manicures to deep tissue massages after a hard day hiking in the hills.
